A parallel-plate capacitor of plate area A and separation d is charged to a potential difference V. The charging-battery is then disconnected and the plates are pulled apart until their separation is 2d. Write expressions in terms of A, d and V for the work done in increasing the separation between plates.

IMPORTANT
A capacitor is connected to a battery. If we move its plates further apart, work will be done against the electrostatic attraction between the plates. What will happen to this work? What will be the effect on the energy of the capacitor?
